Pennsylvania Lumber Museum

Galeton, PA - The Pennsylvania Lumber Museum is a recreated turn-of-the 20th-century lumber mill and camp with a visitors center and themed exhibitions, operated by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC) in cooperation with the Pennsylvania Lumber Museum Associates (PALMA).

The Museum preserves and interprets the colorful heritage of the Commonwealth's prosperous lumber era when white pine and hemlock were the wealth of the nation.

Take a tour of the grounds where a 1912 Shay-geared logging locomotive and Barnhart Log Loader are on display. Experience the rugged lifestyle of the woodhicks in our re-created logging camp. Watch our sawmill turn logs into lumber by joining us during the annual Bark Peeler's Convention event.
